NANM-Southwestern Region The Southwestern Region of the National Association of Negro Musicians, Inc. is currently comprised of branches in Texas, Louisiana and Colorado.

Founded in Chicago in 1919, the National Association of Negro Musicians, Inc. is the country’s oldest organization dedicated to the preservation, encouragement and advocacy of all genres of the music of African Americans. For the aspiring artist, the organization provided opportunities to be heard by peers and to see, even meet, recognized performers. Within NANM meetings was a platform for the seasoned artist to perform. By providing a critical mass of African-American musicians at its annual conventions and sustaining a network of communication throughout the year, NANM offered opportunities for growth as well as for fraternization with fellow musicians. Since its inception, NANM, Inc. has provided encouragement and support to thousands of African American musicians, many of whom have become widely respected figures in music and have contributed significantly to American culture and music history. The organization has awarded scholarships to scores of talented young musicians throughout the country.
